Robert Pattinson offered $1.8 million an episode if Twilight franchise switches to TV?

According to News.com.au, Rob Pattinson is in negotiations with Summit Entertainment for $1.8 million per episode if they take Twilight to the small screen. I'm not sure how accurate this news is, but with "Breaking Dawn" still in the works and no official announcement from Summit has been made, I doubt that they will start another project without finalizing the last installment of the Twilight saga.

ROBERT Pattinson reportedly stands to pocket nearly $1.8 million per episode should the Twilight franchise be taken to the small screen.

The British actor is in negotiations with bosses at Summit Entertainment regarding a TV spin-off, according to Contactmusic magazine.

Pattinson, who plays Edward Cullen in the vampire film franchise, would earn $1.78 million per episode if reports about his involvement are true.

Producers hope to maximise the programme's popularity by launching the series next year after the release of the third movie in the franchise, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, in June next year.

The film has grossed more than $250 million in 10 days since its premiere in the US and $26 million in Australia.
